The big question then, will be which is best, the Suplex or the Morgan designed 5 link. We should know by mid summer I think.

Some may prefer one type of suspension some the other for various reasons , unless one breaks ! Hope mine doesn't !

All we will know by the summer is who sits in which camp.
Which is best depends on personal expectations.

Some will still prefer leaf springs, especially when cost/benefit is factored in.

So far the Morgan design is limited to factory built specials. The Suplex 5L is retrofittable.

Hopefully for all concerned the benefits will be similar.
